Episode 26 recap: Li Bing was attacked.

After hearing about a lot of clues, Li Bing decided to personally go and see the situation. This time, he directly instructed Chen Shi to inform others about what the two people had found and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, someone nearby quickly stopped him and began to remind him that whatever investigation they were conducting was related to the people in the Dali Temple. The person who heard these words was touched and planned to apologize to the young official when he returned.

After finishing these words, Shangguan Yin immediately took A Li Ba Ba alone outside and started questioning him about his true identity when there was no one else around. When the matter was mentioned, she began to proactively talk about the situation encountered during the day. A Li Ba Ba became nervous at this point. In the end, due to helplessness, he revealed his identity as a prince to everyone. Even the other people in the room were very curious when they heard about this. They all sat down together and listened with great interest to the situation on that side, and even went over there actively to join in the excitement.

At night, Li Bing saw a man in black unlocking the door at the entrance. Without hesitation, he stepped forward and helped the man successfully open the lock. After rescuing the person inside, they directly went to a sealed small room. When they sat down, Li Bing looked at the man in black in front of him and recognized his identity when he took off his mask. It turned out that this man had appeared when Li Bing's father was seeing him off, so he had some impression of him. At this point, the person next to him directly said that the medicine Du Zixu gave to the Shangshu was made from human blood, and this thing was not simply used by one person, which was why so many people had died tragically. After Li Bing was expelled by his father, he had been investigating the clues in the death row, but he didn't expect that a riot would suddenly break out inside. Even the people from the ferryman's family were brutally killed, leaving behind only a daughter, who was the Hu Ji in front of them.

When they mentioned the Black Rakshasa, they suddenly heard some commotion outside. After Li Bing was knocked down by someone, General Qiu hurried over to save him. Unexpectedly, the two people in the room were suddenly killed, and even Hu Ji was stabbed after setting off the fireworks.

After the officials from the Dali Temple brought the young official back, they watched as he woke up from the bed. At this moment, he also saw the dead body on the ground. Li Bing learned from the people around him that General Qiu had rushed over to save him, which he found somewhat unbelievable. After examining the bodies on the ground, he planned to move them to another place before informing the others about something.

Once all the clues were connected, Li Bing realized that the same person was responsible for killing his father and the people including Hu Ji. Although they didn't know who the mastermind behind it all was, they wanted to find out about the assassin, Black Rakshasa. Shangguan Yin, who was listening, also intended to join and help everyone. Despite the high danger involved in the case, the people present were not afraid at all and were prepared to work together to investigate. They felt that connecting the clues was extremely dangerous and advised Chen Shi, who was nearby, not to get involved.

When Li Bing reached the door, he suddenly encountered Lai Zhong Shu. Seeing that he was prepared to get involved in the case, Li Bing decisively refused him and planned to continue having the officials from the Dali Temple investigate. The officials from the Dali Temple went back to investigate the case, but they didn't find anything significant. In their state of distress, Li Bing pieced together the clues that the killer had left behind and prepared to relentlessly pursue the truth in the limited time they had. However, they could only watch helplessly as Kou Niang died before their eyes. Unexpectedly, Shangguan Yin's father arrived at the scene and blamed them for not handing the case over to the Jinwu Guard.
